    A good person however he certainly is not the 1DT we need next to Oliver.

    What impresses me the most is that he was a captain for three years. He must be one of those guys that folks gravitate to because he knows how to motivate and lead.

    Very true.

    And once you get to this level, you should be self-motivated, and exhibit at least some leadership tendencies.

    For lack of leadership, See: Sabres, Buffalo.

    Similar to Marv Levy in that respect.

    Gotta make sure we replenish the d-line rotation so they're fresh during a huge game where they'll all make a combined zero big plays!

    He could find guys like that in later rounds - where we have a ton of picks. Find guys with upside in the 3rd round. This was a major reach.

    Re: Bills 3rd DeWayne Carter DT

    Carter is purely a run stopper with limited pass rush upside.

    Mckinley Jackson went 2 picks later and has far more upside.

    There’s still 4-5 guys I like better in the board. Another underwhelming pick.

    This is why trading down is stupid. More pics, less talent. We'll be lucky to have one difference maker out of the 11 pick draft everyone was drooling over.

    Re: Bills 3rd DeWayne Carter DT

    He's going to be part of a rotation, and they need bodies for that.

    It's not like they've been getting difference-makers for the Dline in previous drafts (or even free agency regardless of how much $$ money they throw at them) anyway.

    This kid won't start, but he'll probably play.

    Yes. Get bodies later in the draft though- where we have a ton of picks.

    With a 3rd round pick, draft a player with upside who could be a difference maker.

    It was unfortunately a throw away pick after trading down with KC for it.

    He was not drafted to be "the 1DT we need next to Oliver.".

    He was drafted to be Oliver's backup, which is critical to realize the Bills rotational scheme for D-Line.

    See, using a 3rd round pick to draft a backup, on a team with so many needs, is stupid!
